Normally when I go to Orlando, I would usually focus on the parks that you can spend the entire day at (Disney, Universal, SeaWorld, etc.). But with so many things you can do by mining them together in one day (both Fun Spot locations, Sea Life Aquarium, Gatorland and mini-golf courses), I suppose I could spend a day doing all that at once. Maybe even spend most of the day at an all day park and then stop at one of those locations if there's still some time in the day for more.
We’re there on this past October. Spent 6 hours at Kissimmee then went to Orlando till close. we didn’t have to pay 10$ extra for jumping parks staff was great everything was a walk on. They let my 8 old have his own g cart( made sure it was just family on the track). My kids loved it more than Disney
It's also my favorite Fun Spot park. Every time I'm in Orlando, I stay at a hotel just down the road, so it's very convenient. Mine Blower is a rough ride, but it is so good! Hurricane wasn't there yet when I went. Oddly, I saw Hurricane SBNO at Wild Adventures the same day that I arrived at Fun Spot Kissimmee. I love the E&F at Atlanta's location, so I imagine that I'll love Hurricane as well. Scream'n Eagle was smooth on the track, but the turns were janky (which I found myself loving).
Skycoasters have absolutely zero tummy drop feeling and I don't understand why anyone finds them scary. I have been on 5 of them worldwide and all they do is hurt my back cause of the way I have to climb into the harness. I don't get it. My cousin that has done most of them with me said exactly the same thing. She was like, "um, ok.. surprisingly so boring and forceless, that was shit!" The first one we ever did was the MGM Vegas one. The best part is the soaring AFTER the drop.. the drop itself just doesn't do anything.
Definitely my favorite of the two Fun Spots, though both had solid flat ride collections. I got a lot of Family Kingdom vibes here. On a side-note: Galaxy Spin was my first and only Zamperla spinner, and I was eager to see how it compared to Reverchon. Unfortunately, my one and only ride was a non-spinning car, so I feel like the name is a bit of a misnomer.
Every year on their “birthday” which is some day in June they sell wristbands for 20 dollars each, it’s a smart investment especially since you can buy multiple. Also you are one of the few people who isn’t a local that says Kissimmee right, though i prefer the Orlando location as mine blower is just too rough
0:30, why are you showing a pov of this coaster? It was actually at a small park 15 minutes from where I live until it closed in 2015. I actually have this credit. I looked on RCDB and it was relocated to some park in Panama City Beach Florida. Is that near fun spot kisimee?
Canobie Coaster I’ve been on Star Jet at Casino Pier before it died in the water after Hurricane Sandy it wasn’t that great so I’m curious how this one rides
4:21 "I pick things up and put them down"
Things you'd never see at a corporate park lol
Lol that was quite surprising to see.

Since this place rarely has lines, an hour or two at night is sufficient to do the key attractions.

Wow that's surprising liking it more than Disney.
Hurricane originally came from Celebration City the Sister park of Silver Dollar City.
Yes, if only Ozark Wildcat was saved too.
I never went to Kissimmee but I would like to go there
It's a fun little park.

Hurricane is a bigger, better version of the Miler at the Georgia location so you'd probably enjoy it!
I haven’t been to this park yet. It looks pretty enjoyable! Also, that sky coaster looks insane!
It's definitely a scary (and worthwhile) experience.

I find them terrifying, more so than most rides.
Mine Blower beat me up but it's a fun park.
It's bumpy, but not what I call painful.
Hey I saw a Matterhorn ride in the start of the video
Yes they have one.
COOL
Yes
I absolutely love this park and the rides Mine blower is my fav ride but I scared to do the sky coaster but I think I should do it when I’m 15
The Sky Coaster is terrifying but super fun.
neat little area
It sure is!
I rode the Sky sled version of the Sky Coaster at the Kissimmee one it was so much fun
Glad you liked it!
That Skycoaster looks terrifying.
It is! But it's so fun.
I felt comfortable on the sky sled I feel less comfortable on the flying position when I rode Dare Devil Dive at my home park
I'm the only one I know who really disliked that position.
Canobie Coaster I’m never riding Dare Devil Dive though that’s how much I hated it
I agree this is the best Fun Spot.
For sure!
Fun spot is crap

Those two parks do have a lot of similarities, right down to the body of water in the center.

I only know how to say it right since my friend used to live across the street.
what are the age / height restrictions on the sky coaster?
Riders must be at least 42". Not sure if there is a minimum age.

I needed footage of a Windstorm, but there wasn't any non-copyright for the Old Town one.
Canobie Coaster Im pretty sure that is a hurricane model from SDC
I went here a year before Hurricane
It's worth coming back for since it's a fairly rare ride.
Canobie Coaster I’ve been on Star Jet at Casino Pier before it died in the water after Hurricane Sandy it wasn’t that great so I’m curious how this one rides
It’s a shame the Fun Spot didn’t last in Myrtle Beach
I agree.
The Sky Sled looks so awkward.
It is!
Is there a cheap way to visit both the fun spot parks in Orlando in one day
I've heard of people getting a combo ticket, but it isn't advertised online.
kinda acts like an FEC to Orlando's parks since the others are so big and expensive
True, it really does.
I thought this place was way overpriced, but you make a good argument.
I thought the same until pricing it out.
Old Town is the Wiener Prater of the USA
I will not elaborate on this
Some similarities.
Do you have an Instagram or other social media accounts to follow? I really enjoy your content and videos!
Thank you! But at this time I just have TH-cam.
